a drunk driver. The guy was totally uncooperative and drunk, cussing,

saying he’s not going to get out of the car. I opened the driver door
and used a twist lock to get the suspect out of the car. As he exited the
car, I felt the suspect start to spin on me and saw him making a
punching movement towards my head. I had just gone through a Krav
Maga edged-weapon instructor course so I blocked what I thought was
a punch and used an elbow strike to his head as a counterattack. I
heard something metal hit the ground and saw a large folding knife

lying next to us. I immediately followed up with knee strikes and the
suspect collapsed to the ground. When I took the suspect to jail to book
him, we noticed that he had large scars and cut marks across his chest
in the shape of X’s. I asked him where he got those scars and the
suspect said that he had been in a lot of knife fights. When we ran his

rap sheet, we found he had been arrested 17 times and most of them
for ADW (“assault with a deadly weapon”) with a knife. This guy was
a knife fighter.

I have a background in Thai boxing, jeet kune do, and mixed martial
arts. Although I liked Krav Maga, I thought I would use something else
in the field. But Krav Maga came out of me so naturally that I didn’t

even think about what I was doing and I never saw the knife, only the
punch. I am totally sold on KM and you should take the training
seriously.

These are just two of the real-life stories and testimonials from people who have
saved their lives using Krav Maga as taught by our company, Krav Maga
Worldwide. Some are law enforcement officers, some are military personnel,

and others are civilians. They come from many walks of life and represent all
levels of experience and physical fitness. These people share just one thing in
common: They all train in Krav Maga.
